Comforting the Broken Hearted

Playing your exquisite violin, you watch the lady in front of you. Tears shine in her eyes as she listens to your music, and the most gentle smile begins to bloom on her face. It's like watching a sad drooping flower come back to life, getting its vibrant colors back. The magical tune from your violin seems to do the trick, easing her sorrow and lifting some invisible load off her heart.

Her face turns from one of pure joy back to the worry lines that once were. Outside the window, a figure approaches. A man in a dark coat, slick hair, striding slowly with purpose. You recognize him as the debt collector who's been going door to door in town. As the man walks in, you can sense tension begin to pick up once again in the room. The silent question in the air – How was he going to react to your magic? Would he understand or just be angry and confused?

• Offer him a tune for payment.
• Avoid confrontation and leave.
